    Replacing 'Current' for File Service (Rendering SVG Inline)

    Afternoon all ^^ How does one get an SVG to render inline without 'Current' in v9?

    What worked for v8 (as helped here):

    Current = Umbraco.Core.Composing.Current;
...
using (var stream = Current.MediaFileSystem.OpenFile(media.Url()))
{ ... }

    What do you replace the old Composing.Current with when using this in a Service since v9 did away with it?

    If you are in a view, you can use view injection to get the IMediaFileManager reference, then use that to get to the file, as is shown below.

    @inject Umbraco.Cms.Core.IO.MediaFileManager _mediaFileManager
...
@{
    using (var stream = _mediaFileManager.FileSystem.OpenFile(media.Url()))
    {
    ...
    }
}

    If you are in an extension class, or some other place that doesn't have a direct way to inject a MediaFileManager instance, you'll have to pass it in as a method argument. Then the caller, be it a view or controller, can inject in the MediaFileManager instance and pass it to your method.

    Yeah, am trying to use it in a Method from a Service since it's a handy thing just all over the site not in any one particular view. I had been experimenting with the mediaFileManager but it always came out null. I thought passing a service into a service was a silly way to go about it but I suppose I was wrong xD Not well versed outside of HTML/CSS land.

    Thanks so much Benjamin!
